Chips Designed in Germany

As part of the Chips Designed in Germany initiative, we document chips designed at German universities, research institutions, and companies. The database covers a broad spectrum of chip types: from digital processors and embedded RISC-V cores to analog and mixed-signal circuits, RF and millimeter-wave MMICs, MEMS sensors, neuromorphic chips, FPGAs, silicon photonics, and power electronics.

Use the filters to search by architecture type, process node, signal type, PDK, or application domain.

This database is continuously being expanded – new entries and updates are added on an ongoing basis, so it's worth checking back regularly. Your chip is not listed? Get in touch with us!
